Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our Just Giving page.

Neil & I have decided that as we are both running the London Marathon this year we would pool our efforts to see how much we could raise between us for a cause we both feel passionate about.

About 5 years ago there was a documentary on TV about children who had lost both parents through Aids. There were children as young as 8 caring for siblings with out the love or support of an adult.  To see children alone and trying to get on with what life had dealt them was incredibly sad and there ongoing struggle made a lasting impression, which motivated us to help their plight.

SOS Villages is the worlds largest charity for orphaned & abandoned children whose vision of providing "a loving home for every child" has inspired us to try and raise as much sponsorship as we can on their behalf, and that is where you come in..... please be a part of the crusade to make SOS's vision come true and sponsor us in our Marathon efforts!

THANK YOU

Neil & Lois
